whenever i get sleep paralysis i get a loud ringing in my ears followed by a sensation in my side that begins to feel like pain but is something else i cant explain. this is followed by feeling as though i am being picked up by someone which is then followed by the hallucinations such as feeling a presence in he room and seeing someone or something move about staring at me, is this normal and what is the most probable cause? i am 17 and this has been happening regulary for a few months.

Steven, I don't mean to scare you, but are you sure those are hallucinations you are having? When time and time again people are having the same experiences, then other possibilities have to be considered, IMO.

Nothing bad seems to happen to the many who have had those experiences, including myself, other than it can be very frightening. Chris
